The Blues Man

歌詞

I'm just a singer, a natural born guitar ringer Kind of a, clinger, to sad old songs I'm not a walk-behinder, I'm a new note finder But my name's a reminder, of a blues man that's already gone So I started drinkin', and took things that messed up my thinkin' I was sure sinkin', when you came along I was alone in the hot lights, not too much left in sight But she changed all that in one night, when she sang me this song Hey baby I love you, hey baby I need you Hey baby you ain't got to prove to me you're some kind of macho man You've wasted so much of your life, runnin' through the dark nights Let me shine some love light, down on the blues man I got so sick from speed an', all the stuff they said I was needin' If I was, to keep, pleasin', all of my fans I got cuffed on dirt roads, I got sued over no-shows But you came and took all that old load, down off this blues man Hey baby I love you too, hey baby I need you Hey baby I do get tired, of this travelin' band I'm thirty years old now, nights would be cold now If you hadn't stuck it out, with this blues man I'm thirty years old now, nights sure would be cold now If you hadn't, hung around, with this blues man
